Oahu News:
Honolulu officials urge caution during a severe weather event as six emergency shelters have been opened across the island. Meanwhile, Otake Camp residents have been ordered to evacuate amid flash flooding concerns on Oahu, with free evacuation bus service provided in Waianae and the North Shore. Traffic disruptions continue on the North Shore due to lengthy delays caused by lane closures on Kamehameha Highway near Waimea Bay after rockfalls forced one lane to close for months. Health officials are also warning the public as the fourth case of dengue has been reported on Oahu, urging residents to reduce standing water. Relief efforts continue with the opening of a new Waialua Recovery Center to support Kona-low storm victims.
